Itunes gift cards, and app store?
I just recently added a $25 iTunes gift car to my account, then rented a movie for $4.99. Now I'm trying to buy os x mountain lion from the Appstore on my computer for $19.99. It keeps telling me insufficient remaining store credits. How can i fix this? or why is it telling me this?
If you are in the US store, you are not allowing for the local sales tax that is added to the sale in the final steps.

Question about iTunes Gift cards and App store.
Well, I need to get some apps for my dad's iPhone 3GS, and the problem is, that I don't have a credit card or paypal account. I can buy an iTunes gift card to get those apps but, my doubt is, with those gift cards, can I buy apps for the iPhone despite the fact that my Apple ID account is from Mexico, and not from the US?
You cannot buy anything from the U.S. itunes store unless you are in the U.S. and have a valid address in the U.S. and credit card tied to that address.
http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html
"Purchases or rentals (as applicable) from the iTunes Store are available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions, and are not available in any other location. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Store from outside of the available territory. Apple may use technologies to verify such compliance." -
How to use iTunes gift card in App Store
My kids each just got an iPod touch with a gift card to iTunes ......how can they each purchase apps and things from iTunes while using my apple account? We redeemed the gift cards but I don't think it's set up right because the app price wasn't deducted from the credit total. I think my credit card will be charged instead of the iTunes gift card....
A gift card balance is supposed to be used before the CC is charged. All you can do is contact iTunes by:

I already uploaded my gift cards to iTunes, can I still use them to purchase apps? If yes, how? Thank you.
If your gift cards have been redeemed in iTunes, just start shopping. Tap on the app that you want to buy and enter your password when promtped. You don't need to do anything further if you still have a balance in iTunes on those cards.

Transfer iTunes gift card to app store.
Can this be done? I don't want any music. I also thought these were unified servicces???
ThanksI got it to work from his account on my phone...i.e. I signed in to the app store as him on my phone. I got it to work, but it was a bit convoluted. I still got the same request for the verification code. I put in the code and then it asked if I still wanted to buy the game. I said no. I went back and tried to buy it again and (I can't remember if it asked for my son's password or not) and it worked. I saw the deduction in the balance too for verification.
I did later find an article with this at the very bottom. Maybe that was it all the time???
Additional information may be requested for verification purposes.

I have an iTunes gift card and I have redeemed it. However, I am unable to purchase things from the iTunes Store. How do I purchase an app with my gift card?
Very very likely that tax is applicable and tax is more than $0.01. You need to add a payment method for the tax. If you add a credit card, the girft card balance will be used up first.

I was getting an iTunes gift card and I just want to ask that can the iTunes gift card be use for the app store.
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Try resetting your iPad > Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Then try purchasing an app.
To see the balance, type this web address in the Safari menu bar: http://store.apple.com/us/account/home
When the page opens, click: Check the balance of a gift card
Keep in mind, the total purchase price may include any applicable taxes or fees > iTUNES STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS -

Did you allow for Local Taxes ?
If not... your iTunes Account my be showing that Money is owed.
No one here can see your Account Info as this is a User to User Forum.
Suggest you Contact iTunes Customer Service and request assistance
Use this Link > Apple Support iTunes Store Contact
OR... add another couple of Dollars to your Card and try the Purchase again. -
How can I use a gift card on App Store?
How can I use a gift card on App Store?
If it's an iTunes gift card, as opposed to an Apple Store gift card (which can only be used in Apple stores and the Apple online store), then you can redeem it onto your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1574
And as long as you are buying content for yourself (you can't use an account's balance for gifting content) then your balance should be automatically used for your purchases : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance. -
